The Palm is using 57600 bps, 256 bytes frames and a window size of 1. Its
also not very good at sending out few full frames instead of many small
ones which gives this bad performance. 

The only thing you can do is to enable "Fast RR's", which will give much
better performance when the Linux side is acting as the primary station
(but with IrCOMM you never know which one will become the primary). Fast
RR's will make things better, but cannot fix the main problems which I
mentioned above.
